IMPORTED BULL
SHORTHORN FROM SOUTH AMERICA An exceptionally low-set and very high-quality dark roan Polled Shorthorn bull was recently imported from North America for Mr Andrew Grant, Allandale, Failie, who has the largest herd of this breed in this part of the world. Since founding his Polled Shorthorn herd from importations made years ago from North America to Canterbury, Mr Grant has himself imported a number of stud bulls and stud females to add to his Allandale herd. The last importation was secured for him by Wright, Stephenson and Co. Ltd, and is the prize-winning bull, Walnut Grove Marshall. In addition to being a prize-winning bull himself, his sire, Collyne Sensation, Avas one of the most noted prize-winning bulls of the breed and has sired a ' number of grand champion and jun- ](>:• champion males and females at th-'! leading American shows. Another of Ills sons, in Oakwood Commander, sired some of the leading prize winners of the current year. Mr Grant's latest importation should bp a great asset to the Shorthorn breed in this country—all of his ancestors for five generations are polled.
